Beautiful barn conversion with land in an idyllic semi-rural setting.
Description
This beautifully executed barn conversion enjoys a wonderful semi-rural location on the edge of the Chilterns, surrounded by countryside and with lovely open views in all directions. The renovation has been undertaken with meticulous attention to detail and to a high specification and now offers superb accommodation expertly combining traditional features with contemporary design including vaulted ceilings, wood and porcelain tiled flooring, Kef music system, exposed beams and angled ceilings. Great Missenden is within about four miles affording a quick commute to London.
On the ground floor there is an easy flow between the two main open plan living spaces. The front door opens into a superb dual-aspect and vaulted sitting room of wonderful proportions. Bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and French doors to the side frame lovely garden and countryside views, opening up the entire space during the warmer months. The sitting room leads into the kitchen/dining/family room which is wonderfully presented incorporating a dining and seating area creating an open, sociable layout. The Neptune designed kitchen is bespoke fitted with a comprehensive range of units, complemented by Silestone worktops and integrated appliances. A large island unit includes a generous breakfast bar for informal dining while French doors give access to the garden. Just off this room is a separate TV room, ideal for family life but could also be perfect as a study. Beyond the kitchen is a fully fitted utility room alongside a guest cloakroom. In addition on this floor is a bedroom with a well-appointed en suite shower room. There is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor.
The remainder of the bedroom accommodation is arranged on the first floor, with three good sized and characterful bedrooms all with en suite bath/shower rooms.
The outside space forms an integral part of this home, cleverly landscaped providing thoughtfully placed seating areas, a water feature, raised flower beds and an area of lawn. Post and rail fencing separates the formal gardens from the adjacent paddock with a five bar gate giving access. The property is approached from a long private drive shared with just three other properties, with the security of electric gates. To the front of the house is a gravelled driveway providing ample parking and a large garage. About 5.1 acres in all.
